They've moved us from 7th last week to 6th this week. And we are one spot BEHIND USC. Both have 4-1 records. You'd think we would be ahead of a team we beat, though perhaps USC has had the tougher schedule.

Amy Rodriguez is back and the editor thinks she would have made a differnce in the outcome? Hmmn? Still hard to imagine that sort of speculation would have led to this ranking, cause if we would have been at full strength ourselves last year, well maybe we take the championship--SoccerTimes could have given it to us anyway using the same reasoning, but alas they did not. What an injustice . . .

Soccer Times is out of touch with soccer west of the Mississippi. John Haydon is also the soccer correspondent with the Washington Times. So when you read anything coming out of Soccer Times picture a little leprecaun typing with a faded UNC cap with a picture of Anson Dorrance on the wall.
